Biggest Discounts June Update

Let’s check in on our stats once again and find out where buyers are currently getting the biggest discounts off asking price. If you are a potential buyer, this will help you to know which neighborhoods may be softer in terms of sale price discounts off list price, and help you know where to look for potential bargains.

In the chart below, we have taken all sales data from last month in the greater DC area and sorted it by zip code. We calculated the overall difference between the sale price and the list price. Note that this reflects the final list price, after all price drops in the listing. Any zips with fewer than ten sales are excluded from the top and bottom ten rankings, but interested readers may download the full data summary in Excel format (xls).

For a quick look at where a given zip code is located, just type it into the Redfin search box, or drop by the handy USNaviguide.com zip code map.

Here are the top ten zip codes with the largest overall discount:

The overall discount dropped a bit in June from our previous update in April, down to 3.3% from 3.7%. The McLean, VA zip code 22102 easily took this month’s crown with a whopping 15.5% discount… off the average list price of just over $1 million.

Here are the ten zip codes with the smallest discounts:

Down in Triange, VA (22172) homes are actually selling for 4% more than list.
